Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Nitrogen Fertilization Temporarily Enhances Phosphatase Activity in a High‐P Loamy Sand

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Efficient plant utilization of soil phosphorus (P) is essential to reduce dependence on mineral P fertilizers in intensive agriculture. Input of mineral nitrogen (N) fertilizers and its chemical form may influence the activity of P mineralizing enzymes, but how this interaction operates under field conditions in a soil with high P ...

Contemporary silage additives [PDF]

, 2009
The overview of additives used in silage preparation is presented in the paper. Those most present around the world these days are biological additives (bacterialenzymatic inoculants). They are used to enhance the fermentation in the plant material which is difficult to ensile (leguminous), and also in order to increase aerobic stability in maize ...

Effects of mixed microbial fermentation on the quality and metabolite profile of cassava leaf feed based on untargeted metabolomics

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cassava leaves are a major byproduct of cassava processing and have a low utilization rate. In this study, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis were used for solid‐state fermentation of cassava leaves to improve their feed quality. Results After 48 h of fermentation, the feed pH decreased to

In vitro and in sacco determination of neutral detergent fibre digestibility of treated cereal straw

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cereal straw is hardly digestible due to its complex bonds of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. That is why chemical treatments, such as with sodium hydroxide, may help to loosen the bonds and thus increase ruminal digestibility. Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) digestibility is a good predictor of feed intake.
